There is a good Waffle House in Ohio. You can eat Chicken with Waffles. I am sure that you would enjoy it. If you pass by Kansas City, make sure you stop by Herm's new diggs and i hope you lay a hot steamy pile right on his doorstep. Seattle huh? could you get any further west in the continental US?

joewilly Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 When were you ever in Nebraska? I drove out to utah from ny for college. my mom, sister & brother went. funny story. I was driving, mom & sis fell asleep in back and I floored it for a while. mom woke up when I was doing about 115 & freaked out. made me pull over & she drove. 20 minutes later she got pulled over for speeding & we had to exit at lincoln nebraska so cop could watch her pay the fine into a mailbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanDoug Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 If you're on I-90, which I think you will be, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho is a nice place to stop. Resort type town, only been there in summer. Nearby Spokane WA is pretty forgetable, no need to linger there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Troll Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 One time I walked half a mile to Whataburger in the rain at 6 in the morning. I ate, then I puked in the parking lot. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resort type town, only been there in summer. Nearby Spokane WA is pretty forgetable, no need to linger there. Stopped ther with Seapatsy on the way East. Very nice place. Funny little story, we stopped for a picknic lunch by the lake, and I was enjoying my chicken leg while sitting on the dock when SPC snuck behind me and pushed me into the lake. The water was FREEZING!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor99 Posted November 1, 2006 Share Posted November 1, 2006 Whataburgers ROCK!!! Too bad you can only get them in Texas or Arizona!!! We have one here in Tampa now. You should stop by Wall Drug.

Jetman67 Posted November 1, 2006 Author Share Posted November 1, 2006 Never Mind. I found Wall Drug. I may stop there but its only about 50 miles from Mt. Rushmore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch out for Smokey. Dude, I have no choice. Its either those states or go through Chicago and up to 94 through Wisconsin, North Dakota etc. Its a long borig drive no matter what route I take. My goal is to get back home as fast as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murphklecko73 Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Can you imagine the look on the local's faces when JM67 gets out of his sporty PT Cruiser chewing his stinky mint chew and farting around town.
